Kubota Brabender Technology GmbH, Relaunch

[olafgleba]

End of 2025 the relaunch of die Kubota Brabender Technology Website went live. KBT is a global leader in feeding technology and bulk solids handling. 

The technical production is developed by me, Olaf Gleba. The grafic design is supplied by C&G: Strategische Kommunikation GmbH.
Homepage: https://www.kubota-bt.com

The site uses a lot of asynchronous calls in several sections.

1. The product search is ajax driven and also preserve entered filter options while browsing the product pages (and all other pages) with session.storage. 

2. Because there are many global partners and locations, it is neccessary to allow to narrow down the selection for proper contacts.

 

3. The page media holds all available downloads and media content. This includes magazines, videos, terms of contract and works standard specifications. The videos are implemented with help of the HTML Dialog Element. Work Standards documents are supplied/collected from one source (product page) to avoid duplication. 

4. Backend: As most of the time, i provided content modules that fits the client needs.

 

This and that:

• PrivacyWire (@joshua) as CCM (just a few cookies to handle Matomo and external movie content)
• Uses the SearchEngine Module (@teppo) to handle (multilanguage) site search
• Wire Mail Smtp (@horst)to deliver automated e-mails
• Heavy use of Fieldtype AssistedURL (Fork by @adrian) to provide language dependend, local file linking (fieldname_[de|en] approach)
• Distribution of concatenate/minified css and javascript is cachebusted (happens within my developement environment,- no modules (like AIOM etc.) involved).
• The site uses a bunch of modules provided by the ProFields Package (for example Repeater Matrix and Table Fieldtypes).
